Abstract

Emerging contaminants are dispersed during environmental matrices and enter the environment through various anthropogenic causes. Even though there have been significant improvements in the detection and examination of suggested pollutants in recent years, various undiscovered contaminants that pose a threat to the environment must be found and measured in diverse environmental components. These contaminants may be dispersed and persistent in the air and ecological receptors even at low concentrations. There still needs to be more reliable information on their destiny and environmental behavior, as well as the dangers they pose to the ecosystem and human well-being. The environmental impact of several developing micropollutants still needs to be clarified since there is frequently insufficient data to assess their danger.
